For the third year in a row, I am turning to silk listers for book recommendation this holiday season.
What have you read over the last year that has left a mark on you? What are you eagerly looking forward to reading over the Christmas/New Year's holidays? Past silk list recommendations have included such gems as: * Alice Albina's Empires of the Indus * Samanth Subramaniam's Following Fish * Sarnath Bannerjee's Barn Owl's Wondrous Capers, and * Devdutt Pattanaik's Myth=Mithya. Books that are easy to get a hold of in India (and more difficult elsewhere) preferred (but not required). Fiction and non-fiction recommendations are equally welcome.
